"Peeling Potatoes" is a genre painting by the Dutch artist Evert Pieters (1856–1932), known for his intimate depictions of domestic life and his mastery in portraying the effects of light. The painting dates from the late 19th or early 20th century, a period when Pieters was particularly focused on scenes of everyday life in rural settings.

The artwork captures a moment of simple domestic activity, as suggested by its straightforward title. It typically features one or more figures engaged in the task of peeling potatoes, a common chore in Dutch households of the time. The painting is characterized by Pieters' attention to the play of light and shadow, as well as the realistic rendering of textures and materials, from the roughness of the potato skins to the softness of the fabrics worn by the figures.

As a representative work of Evert Pieters, "Peeling Potatoes" exemplifies the artist's commitment to Luminism, a style that emerged in the Netherlands towards the end of the 19th century, influenced by the French Impressionists. Pieters' use of light not only enhances the realism of the scene but also imbues it with a sense of warmth and tranquility, reflecting the artist's desire to capture the beauty in ordinary life.

While "Peeling Potatoes" is not as widely recognized as the works of Pieters' more famous contemporaries, it remains a valuable example of the genre painting tradition in the Netherlands, offering insights into the cultural and social practices of the time. The painting is appreciated for its technical skill and its ability to evoke a connection with the viewer through the universal and timeless activity it portrays.
